GLP-1 (1-37) (HUMAN, BOVINE, GUINEA PIG) 0.5mg Glucagon-Like Peptide 1 (GLP-1) is synthesized by posttranslational processing of proglucagon in the intestine and pancreas and plays an important role in metabolic homeostasis. Among the different molecular forms, such as GLP-1 (7-36) amide and GLP-1 (7-37), the function of GLP-1 (1-37) has been unclear. GLP-1 (1-37) was shown to convert intestinal epithelial cells into insulin-producing cells. These observations turned GLP-1 (1-37) into a new promising therapeutic compound for the treatment of diabetes mellitus. In animal models of dilated cardiomyopathy, hypertensive heart failure, and myocardial infarction, GLP-1 has shown a remarkable cardioprotective activity. CAS: 87805-34-3 C186H275N51O59 FW: 4169.54.
